| Field of Dreams Spring 2002 |
The photo on the left is our "Field of Dreams", our home. It was built by our parents, players, and friends over the last 12 years. There are 7 baseball, softball and Tee-Ball fields. It is the largest community project ever built solely by volunteers in Pennsylvania. No Federal, State or local funding is provided to BPALL for Dreams. It is operated, maintained and controlled by BPALL.
In addition to our regular season spring, summer, and fall programs, BPALL competes in Pennsylvania Little League District 27, with the opportunity to advance to Section 8 and state tournament play.
BPALL is a Tax-Exempt Charity under IRC 501(c)(3). All donations made to "BPALL" are fully tax deductible. BPALL's United Way number is 12738.

Donations received through team sponsorships are second only to registration fees as a funding source for our Little League. Sponsorships have been in large part responsible for funding improvements in fields as well as continuing the financial support of the Challenger League for our special needs boys and girls. Please consider sponsoring a team – Sponsors’ names are printed on team uniforms and a handsome keepsake plaque, with a picture of the sponsored team, is presented to each Sponsor. Team Sponsors are needed in 2010! In 2009 all BPALL teams had sponsorships and we are concerned that not all teams in 2010 will have Sponsors. The BPALL Board of Directors recognizes that the current economic conditions continue to present a challenge for many of our local businesses and households. Thus, we have held the cost of sponsorships at the reduced rate introduced last season. Tball teams - $155; All other spring, summer, and fall teams - $245. Please click on the document link below for the sponsor application. Your sponsorship is very much appreciated. The cost of sponsorship is a deductible charitable contribution for tax purposes. If you have any questions, please contact our Sponsorship Director, Evelyn Shreve at ewshreve@msn.com or 610-688-3005.
